and as far as about the “kingdome and dyckman fighting for the hot #1 spot”, that would be a matter of a personal opinion…

in my estimation, both t’ments need major overhaul and improvements as well, starting with Dyckman…

how about upgrading from two 20 min halves to grown man four 12 min quarters??? AND, if possible, starting games on time…

as far as Kingdome, how about being able to play music again??? AND, being able to stay in the park past 6:00pm???

the aforementioned t’ment flaws is what has led me to believe that neither of them are ready to claim the #1 NYC T’ment Spot. AND, as a personal note to you, there are OTHER t’ments in the city of New York. If you would allow yourself to be exposed to these OTHER t’ments, thus it would allow you to broaden your horizons that these OTHER t’ments can ALSO be up for #1 spot consideration.

Just to name a few: hoops in the sun at orchard beach, watson classic and tri-state classic.

take a min out of your busy schedule & you will be SHOCKED to notice there is life beyond EBC, Kingdome & Dyckman.

NYC IS A BASKETBALL PHENOMENON…do yourself a favor and take advantage of it, guarantee that you wont be sorry.

i hear the word “all-stars” being thrown around real loosely amongst these theams….

seemingly, the only all-stars im hearing are either entertainers or musicians (except for 1 NBA player) this would be a great lineup if it was f****** SummerJam 2008 at Giants Stadium…but since im not planning on attending a concert, but better yet a basketball game, i would need to be advised on some of the players that will be partcipating on these “all-star” teams…

because in my estimation, EBC for the past 2 years has been a ghost-town, prior to that, i have NEVER EVER heard of being able to show up at 155th and 8th avenue during gametime and being able to walk directly in the park!

in past years, if you were not on line at least 2pm in the afternoon, you could literally forget about it…i think that speaks volumes within itself…

in closing, ive heard of great comebacks before, but this would have to be monumental

good luck EBC, you wont see me until I see IT!

this sounds like a major improvment due to the sponsers, i think major sponsers is what was also missing last year cause with major sponsers comes NBA players

Greg and I talked at the Jordan Classic and he says he’s coming correct this year. The line up speaks for itself and
the coaches will bring the players. The question is… will we be able to get in the park????

Seriously, the biz of the playground flows through the Rucker and everyone has pulled their game up in the city. Better product means, better players. The best environment on all levels will win.

Look for good ball in the city this summer.

The team names arent impressive. More of the same..

Its who plays on the teams that I’ll be looking out for.

I still ride with the Ebc though, let the trend hoppers flock elsewhere to do the chicken noodle soup.

The line up is all good, But that was never really the problem. Am i going to have to stand on line for three hours while security let’s there favorites in. Is there going to be enough seating for the real fans since half the park is now cut off for V.I.P.? How long do we have to wait for the games to start while these teams celebs make an “Appearance” I don’t have to go through all That to get in the Tri State Classic or the Watson Classic. Hopefully it will be all good.
